What happens to a PGWP if my DLI transfer creates a gap or compliance problem?

Illustration for this immigration answer

Unauthorized study, enrolment gaps, or an unclear academic history from a school change can jeopardize your Post-Graduation Work Permit eligibility.

PGWP eligibility depends on several factors, including the school, the program, your full-time study history, and your compliance with study permit conditions.

A school transfer that creates an enrolment gap, periods of unauthorized study, or an unclear academic record can cause problems when you apply for a PGWP. Because of this, it is important to maintain continuous, authorized full-time study and to follow the proper process if you change DLIs.
